Definitions
- the present invention relates to the treatment of water systems containing potentially undesirable organisms, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for treating such water systems to kill undesirable organisms.
- a preferred embodiment of the present invention relates to the treatment of ships' ballast water to kill potentially undesirable organisms in said water to prevent them from being transported from one coastal area to another.
- the invention relates to water systems in general, but as ships' ballast water is recognised internationally as a vector for the translocation of invasive marine organisms to environments where they do not belong, the description below mainly concerns the treatment of such ballast water systems .
- ballast water uptake management mid-ocean exchange of ballast water where the ballast water is replaced by oceanic water, and the ability to reduce ships permission to discharge.
- the effectiveness of managing the uptake of ballast water is limited by the ballasting requirement of ships.
- ballast exchange There are two methods of mid-ocean ballast exchange; reballasting and ballast dilution (flushing) .
- Reballasting is considered by the shipping industry to be dangerous for may ships.
- Ballast dilution is a safer operation, but less efficient. To ensure a reasonable efficiently, each tank must be flushed with water corresponding to 3-4 times its own volume. This implies increased cost of operations (fuel and manpower) in addition to significant shorter life span of ballast water pumps .
- the basic concept of the present invention i.e. to subject aquatic organisms to gas supersaturated water has to our knowledge not been used or proposed as a method for the treatment of ballast water, or any other kind of water systems .
- US Patent 5,192,451 discloses a method of controlling the growth of zebra mussels in ship ballast water by adding a polymer to the ballast water.
- US Patents 5,376,282 and 5,578,116 disclose the use of a vacuum and agitation for reducing the dissolved oxygen of natural source water specifically to a level below that sufficient to support the survival respiration of zebra mussels .
- US Patent 3,676,983 discloses an apparatus including a vacuum chamber and an agitator for removing gases from a liquid.
- US patent 4,316,725 discloses several methods, including the use of a vacuum, to remove dissolved oxygen from water.
- US Patent 3,251,357 discloses injecting combustion/stack gases into water for treating the water to inhibit the growth of, e.g., micro-organisms.
- the main object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus which solve the above indicated problems, i.e. the unwanted spreading of biological material by ships' ballast water.
- the basic concept of the present invention is to establish a condition of gas super-saturation in said water. We will later in this specification document that gas supersaturation of sufficient level is lethal to various and quite diverse systematic groups of organisms, and it is anticipated that such a condition effectively will kill a substantially population of the organisms present in said water.
- the method and apparatus of the present invention can be used separately or in combination with other treatments regimes such as heat treatment, treatment with chemicals and so forth.
- DE 422074 describes a process for the inhibition of corrosive activity of sulphur bacteria by providing an aerobic environment.
- DE 2733000 describes a process for the disintegration of micro-organisms wherein an aqueous suspension is supplied with a compressed gas. The suspension is guided through a disintegration means by which the rapid drop in pressure destroys the cell structure.
- WO 98/46723 describes a method for disrupting microorganisms which produce gaseous metabolic products
- US 5,816,181 describes a treatment system for ballast water wherein the water is heated to a temperature sufficient to kill the micro-organisms.
- the concept of super-saturation of a water system with a gas is based on the findings that a super-saturated condition is harmful to most aquatic organisms.
- An essential feature of the method and apparatus of the present invention is thus to establish a level of gas super-saturation in said water system sufficient to kill the unwanted organisms.
- the present invention relates to how the introduction of surplus gas into a water system at pressure higher than 1 atm. , establishing a sufficient super-saturated level for a sufficient period of time to kill nearly all of the unwanted organisms in said water.
- the amount of gas that can be dissolved into water, the saturation concentration is linearly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas in the air, as described by Henry 1 s law.
- a super-saturated condition is in the present application defined as a concentration of dissolved gas above the equilibrium concentration of gas at 1 atm. pressure.
- concentration of gas over time will change due to the flux over the gas-water interface (s) .
- mass transfer are predominantly due to three factors; 1) the level of turbulent mixing, 2) the amount of surface area available for gas transfer, and 3) the residence time of gas bubbles in said water.
- preferred embodiments of the present invention relates to systems, such as a ships water ballast tanks, constructed to decrease the rate of mass transfer, i.e. to maintain the super-saturated condition as long as possible.
- Such tanks may for instance have a small air-water interface .
- EPO Environmental Protection Agency
- the Environmental Protection Agency (EPO) has recognised this threat to fish and has set water quality standards for dissolved gas levels at 110% of saturation. Gas super-saturation will also be detrimental and finally mortal to other organisms, such as the molluscs Mya arenaria at 114% saturation (Bisker, R. et .
- an embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for treating water systems wherein a pressurised gas is introduced into the water, establishing a dissolved gas level of more than 120%, more preferable
- Cooling water systems are liable to colonisation by aquatic organisms (bio-fouling) . It is important to take action to prevent mussels, oysters, barnacles and other
- the majority of the fouling problems in cooling waters are caused by three species of mussels, the marine mussel Mytilus edulis, the brackish water mussel Mytilopsis leucophaea ta and the fresh water mussel Dreissena polymorpha .
- Figure 1 shows an apparatus for the treatment of ballast water.
- Figure 2 shows an alternative embodiment of an apparatus for the treatment of ballast water.
- Figure 3 shows in a cross section a ballast tank.
- Figure 4 shows an apparatus for the treatment of industrial water, such as cooling water.
- the main biocidal effects of the treatment is believed to be the biological effects of an imposed gas super- saturation in water and subsequent release of said super- saturation.
- the release of the supersaturation will be the passive movement back to saturation equilibrium, governed by the atmospheric pressure, temperature, surface area and turbulence of the water mass, e.g. from sloshing in upper part of tank.
- the water to be treated is transported through a pump creating a pressure higher than ambient at surface waters.
- a gas compressor delivers compressed gas, optionally through a diffusor, into the water stream.
- the gas diffusor will ensure three important functions :
- a MosselMonitor® has been developed by KEMA, and this enables us to accurately record the mussels' valve activity. By attaching sensors to the mussels, we can keep a record of what the mussels behaviour are underwater. This model system will be used to determine the effect of various levels of super-saturation on the zebra mussel Dreissena polymorpha .
- Another relevant test model would be various life stages of the brine shrimp Artemia sp .
- the concentration of dissolved gas were measured using a total dissolved gas meter, e.g. Comon sensing TBOC-L meter.
- Artemia naupleii cysts were hatched and enriched with 0.2 gram DC DHA Selco enrichment pr liter of culture (Both cysts and enrichment: INVE Aquaculture, Hogveld 91 Denermunde, Belgium) the day following hatching.
- the culture was grown in seawater at 34.7 ppt, at 26°C in 250 1 tanks.
- the naupleii were harvested, concentrated and stored in a 70 1 tank with aeration and oxygenation at a density of 1100 naupleii pr ml. Temperature in the storage tank was 14°C.
- Two ml of Artemia naupleii i.e.
- the experimental unit were supplied with a tube delivering pressurized air (Fini type Big pioneer 255, Zola Predosa Bo, Italy) through a ceramic diffusor (Birger Christensen P.O. box 13, N-1309 Rud, Norway), a pressure gauge and an outlet with a valve.
- the control unit were supplied with an air supply and an outlet.
- the units When the naupleii were distributed, the units were closed, and compressed air at 3 bar was delivered to the diffusor.
- the outlet valve As the pressure built in the unit, the outlet valve was regulated to give a pressure of 1 atm above ambient. The outlet gas was led through a tube into a beaker of water aiding inspection of flow, as well as facilitating the measurements of airflow through the system.
- the pressure was kept at ambient, and air was supplied at the same flow as in the experimental unit.
- the naupleii were kept in the units for 18 h, and when the experiment was terminated, the outlet valve was adjusted to release the pressure to give ambient pressure after one hour.
- the gas super-saturation was measured by a Weiss saturometer (Eco Enterprises, Seattle WN, USA) before sampling commenced.
- Nitrogen supersaturation was calculated to 119% after adjustment for Bunsen coefficient temperature, salinity and oxygen saturation.
- the number of naupleii recovered in the control unit was 1109 after the experiment, which represents 56.3% of the initial number of naupleii added. In the supersaturation unit, the number of naupleii recovered was 832, which represents 38.7% of the initially added naupleii (Table 1).
- the number of naupleii recovered alive in the two units were 1109 from the control unit and 673 in the super- saturation unit, which corresponds to 51.1 and 31.3% on initial numbers, respectively.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic set-up of a treatment system for ballast water.
- the embodiment shown in figure 1 is added to existing ballast water systems on the ship.
- Ballast water is taken from outside the ship and is pumped through the ships' own ballast pump 10.
- An air compressor 20 delivers compresses air through a diffusor 30 into the ballast water stream at the pressurised side of the ballast water pump.
- a back-flushing valve 40 prevents pressurised water from entering the air compressor 20.
- a meter for super-saturation 50 reports to a controller/logging PLS, which controls the air compressor 20.
- a super-saturation meter 70 in the ballast tanks may report to the PLS.
- the proposed treatment system can easily be installed in existing ships (retrofitted) .
- the pump excerts sufficient suction before the centrifugal head, air can be let into the water flow by this suction alone, through an air inlet from above the water surface.
- This system can also easily be added to the existing ballast water system of the ship. Ballast water is pumped through the ship's own ballast pump 10'. Air is supplied either through a pipe entering from over sea surface level, or from the machine room. Preferably, the air is entered at the suction side of the pump.
- a backflush valve 20' prevents the overflow of water into the machine room or piping if higher pressure than ambient air pressure should occur in the water flow.
- a meter 40' for super saturation reports to a controller/ loging PLS 50' , controlling an air regulating valve 30' .
- supersaturation meters 60' in the ballast tanks may report to the PLS.
- Figure 3 shows a cross section of a modern tank vessel. Supporting structural components are omitted for the sake of clarity. The surface area are relatively small compared to the volume of the ballast water, thus ensuring a slow exchange of gas over the air/water surface.
- FIG 4 shows a treatment apparatus for industrial water usage, e.g. cooling water.
- the system can use a dedicated pump 10'', or be fitted into the existing water pump.
- An air compressor 20'' delivers compressed air through a diffusor 30'' into the water stream at the pressurised side of the water pump.
- a back-flushing valve 40' prevents pressurised water from entering the air compressor.
- a meter for super-saturation 50' ' reports to a controller/logging PLS 60' ' , controlling the air compressor.
- a super-saturation meter 80'' in the industrial application 70'' may report to the PLS. The water may be recycled back to the reservoir.
